Philosophy/ Mission Statement:
The Red Deer Child Care was
established as a non-profit agency to provide child care to families in the City
of Red Deer and surrounding areas. Our mission statement is to meet the
children’s development needs through stimulating, quality programs.
Our aim is to provide children with a
special kind of learning experience developing the child’s potential
physically, socially, emotionally, intellectually, and creatively. We
believe that the best way for children to have these learning experiences is
through varied play opportunities, which we offer through choices in group and
individualized play. (See appendixes 1, 5 and 13 for examples)
